Since his father died when he was a child, he
was unable to go to school. So, Jaya Ram started as a laborer and earned his
school fees at the age of 12. He had coped with many difficulties to become
the first person from his village to complete an education. Through the help
of his cousin, who donated a piece of land, he was able to establish a school
(Shree Latibab Primary School ) in his locality. Being a member of the Dalit (untouchable)
community, Jaya Ram felt the need to organize social projects to help his
community improve its situation, so the next generation will not have to face
the same difficulties. He wanted the poor and uneducated people to smile and
have a happy life. So, from his youth, Jaya Ram Tamata stood as a social
worker, and started adult literacy programmes, health and other social
programmers in his village. Still in the country, he started wotrking for
the NNDWO (Nepal National Depressed Welfare Organization), widely known in
Nepal as the `Dalit N.G.O.`. He is still involved with that organization as a
member. He had another opportunity to develop his skills working for the
organization `Mahakali Overseas`, founded by Mr. Pratp Ram Lohar, who brought
Jaya Ram and his wife to Kathmandu. Seeing the difficulties of city life, motivated
Jaya Ram even more to be a social worker. He thought he would certainly do one
great thing for the welfare of children. One day a foreigner asked Jaya Ram, " You
look educated. What do you do?" Are you involved in social work?"
JayaRam was so happy that someone recognized him for what he does. He felt
proud of himself and took pride in his work. He started working with one
orphan home in 1990 July. His wife was responsible for looking after the
children. In 1995, he founded the Children Welfare Home
and also helped to find support for the Shree Mahendra Bhrikuti school of
which he is a management committee member. In the Children
Welfare Home 12 children were accommodated in the opening year. To be able to
establish the Home, JayaRam sold all his property that he had in his village.
Today Jaya Ram helps provide lodging, food, and education to 55
children in the CWH. They have a smile on their face and they are happy.
Actually, this is JayaRam's properly. |
